The thesis is dedicated to studying the impact of war on the formation of traffic flows in cities. In the context of humanitarian conflicts, the transport infrastructure of cities experiences serious changes, which significantly affects the mobility and safety of the population. The need to study this issue in the context of the current Russian-Ukrainian war, which has caused the most massive migration in Europe since World War II, is particularly relevant. The research examines the dynamics of changes and ways to adapt the urban transportation system to war conditions. The study is aimed at determining the parameters of transport zones of cities with special deviations of the congestion index compared to the normal state of the transport network during several phases of the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation (RF) into Ukraine. The research methodology is based on the analysis of statistical data on population movements, the use of transport flow models, and a systematic analysis of the interaction of various components of the urban transport system. The study also takes into account the impact of factors that arise in times of war, such as evacuation of the population, destruction of infrastructure, occupation by enemy forces, etc. The results of the thesis can be used to predict changes in urban transport systems by local and state institutions in the case of a humanitarian conflict. The obtained models can also be used by international and state organizations to plan the evacuation of the population during the war.
